Alexa is a voice interface hooked to a database that logs personal information about you and your family and sells that information to anyone that Amazon can sell it to.
Every "colonizing Mars" plan has these holes. People say "create an atmosphere" or "dig caves" to live in. With what? There is no Home Depot on Mars. How do you create an atmosphere? How do you keep it when there is no magnetosphere? It is a mystery! But who cares - we are going to MARS!
I never understood this argument. Why is it so critical for our race to not go extinct? Species go extinct all the time. By they way, we can't live anywhere other than Earth (we evolved to live here and other reachable environments would kill us quickly). But as a thought experiment it is nice to think about spreading through the galaxy, even though it is impossible.
This will work. All we need to do is mine and asteroid for space dust and fill the hull with it. When we land on Mars we will construct caves and live in them to get around the radiation problem. Anyone else have any ideas on how to colonize Mars?
Trust me. We all understand you. Everyone on Slashdot has a high IQ, Aspbergers, Autism, you name it. 'Normal' people don't stand a chance! Give me a break...
I was thinking the same thing. Everyone on Slashdot is a special snowflake and that explains their crappy behavior. I'll bet most Slashdotters think they have Aspbergers.
Aren't they the geniuses who thought it was a good idea to pay blackmail to stop a DDoS? How does it use Azure though? I thought they ran their own servers and didn't use the "Cloud"

We graduated college together. Always a nice guy.
LOL. Advocating for Trump. Thats a good one! Trump is the main reason the species should go extinct
Weird. So if you find out that life exists elsewhere you won't be so gung ho about "saving the species"? Species are going extinct right now.
Bring extra pumps!

And nerds are all geniuses with special brains. That explains it!
Yep. Everyone is special here. Just like everyone else.
Yes we are all geniuses here with special brains. Normal people don't understand us.

Sure, why not? Everything contributes to climate change.
Nah, I'm pretty sure it is "Always look on the good side of life" from the Monty Python song.
No it doesn't. Who says government backed research will be public domain and not patented? Such a naive idiot.
I'm pretty sure it is "think of the good side", not "think of the bright side". "Bright side" makes no sense.
Exactly. And if there was no ice then it must have warmed enough for it all to melt. Totally a win-win. Either way - climate change.
They saved 4 years and $17 million.
How is it clear? None of the files they hosted were copyrighted AFAIK?

Oh in that case I recommend Hotmail.
Wrong. I am always 100% correct. You must be thinking of my brother, 110011001000
Google is reading and scanning all your email. Give me a break.
